Subject: New Song: Gwen Stefani "What You Waiting For" (2004)

Written By: woops on 10/27/04 at 12:21 am

I'm not a fan of No Doubt, but I happen to like this song. It reminds me of something from The Missing Persons, an '80's new wave band.  8)  :D Though the video's OK. Could've been better.

Oh, I adore this song! It's one of my favourites at the moment. Of course, No Doubt has long been a favourite group of mine, so it's not surprising, really.

Not great...it would not be my first choice, though.

I like the song. The video is cool, inspired by Alice In Wonderland.

I guess I expected better from her. It's just mediocre. Maybe the next single will be better.

gwen is my girl!  funny how some are criticizing the 80's sound!  that's why i always loved no doubt!!  they are very reminiscent of the 80's.  i was concerned about her going solo, but i think it may just work out for her.  ;D

I love her! However, the song doesn't do it for me. I was attracted to her by the ska/reggae sound.

I just heard part of it on the radio today and what I heard does sound a little like Missing Persons from the '80s.
(and a little bit of Hall & Oates' "Family Man", too)

It reminds me too much of the video for Tom Petty's 'Don't Come Around Here No More'.

She was on the tv here last night.  I don't know what song she was singing.  The only words I remember are "tick tock"!  Anyway as soon as she started singing I thought she sounded a lot like Lena Lovich (if anyone remembers her?)

If you look at the lyrics the song talks about cutting.

I like No DOubts "Tragic Kingdom" and I cant stand "Rock Steady" (waste of $15).


The song is okay though. THe album is POOP!  >:( >:( >:( >:(  (There are 12 different genres of music represented on this album. Its urksome that she cant decide what to sing.)

You're freakin' retarted whoever said the song's about cutting. Maybe if you actually LISTENED to the song it's about how she wanted to become inspired but she didn't know how. She said she wanted to do a new song and her friend said "What you waiting for?" It says climber stupid!

I haven't seen the video but I was surprised when I first heard it on her CD. ALthough I'm not sure what her obsession with Japanese women is all about, there several great songs on it. Bubble Pop electric is a unique and fun example. I'd say track 11 is probably the most 80's sounding song.

When Gwen Stefani isn't trying to work with rappers.. she's okay.

Yeah, that's her best solo song thus far IMO.
